Juicy gooseberry and lime with a tantalizing hint of smoke.

François Lurton Fumées Blanches Sauvignon Blanc (LCBO 472555, $14)

A big spicy blend of stellar Syrah and Grenache – fabulous value!

TASTE THE SOUTH Sunshine at any time of the year! The Mediterranean inspires our splendid array of mezethes – the Greek word for delectable things to eat while you’re having a glass of wine before dinner. Stuffed vine leaves and peppers, olives and tabbouleh… Big flavours like these call for wines with loads of personality – perhaps a Sauvignon Blanc that’s crisp and clean but full of intense fruitiness (and happens to be great with any kind of salad). Or lightly chill a peppery red from the Southern Rhône, a wine that manages to be powerful but also disarmingly elegant.
